Steph Tisdell isn’t a dog person or a cat person – she’s a bird person. The comedian and actor has two Amazon parrots named Michael Parkinson (“Parky”) and Eddie McGuire (“Eddie” or “Edzy”).
“People get birds and keep them in cages – that’s not what they’re there for,” she says. “If you have an exotic parrot, they require a huge amount of work, a lot more work than a dog does. But they’re so worth it. They sing, they dance, they talk … They’re just really good companions.”
